Working as a trans man
« on: 24 March 2021, 02:54:02 pm »
Hi everyone, I have been working for about 2 years as a woman, but am in fact a transgender man. I'm taking testosterone and my voice is starting to break and I'm getting hairy, I'm not really sure what to do? I want to get both top and bottom surgery, but these are both very expensive.
Where is good to advertise myself as a trans man? I'm on adult work and it doesn't seem to have any other trans men on there, and I'm worried people will think I'm a trans woman (clients aren't very understanding)
Are there any other trans men on here who can give me advice working as a guy? I'm happy to work as a woman until I get rid of my boobs, but after that there'll be a big wait before I get a penis. Please help!

Currently, as you're still very much presenting as a woman, albeit a hirsute one, maybe you should focus your marketing  around that - they are lots of men who enjoy hairier women, so advertise as having a full bush, hairy armpits and that you don't shave your legs.

I don't think it is possible for you to advertise as a trans male until you have had surgery, because until you do, you still have the body of a biological female. Also, be prepared that working as a trans male (FtM) will be incredibly niche, and there might not be any takers, although for some men, I suppose it will be an experience to tick off. You mention having bottom surgery. Will you be having a phalloplasty? If you are, it would be worth waiting to see how functional your penis will be. It is worth noting that Buck Angel didn't have a phalloplasty because it is impossible to make a penis that is comparable to a biological one, and instead, he kept his vagina and is known as a 'Man with a pussy'.

It is worth checking out Birchplace although I do not know if there are any FtM escorts, particularly ones that are fully transitioned.

Hth, and good luck with everything.

At least in the interim, I'd be tempted to suggest marketing yourself as 'androgynous'? You may need to keep your face fairly hair free though?

I'd also concur with Millie that sex work may not be feasible as a full-time career if you fully transition. Women rarely use male escorts as it is, so I presume you would mostly attract the gay market, but again being trans may prove problematical. There would also be a long recovery time from phalloplasty, possible complications etc. (Sorry, but I follow Scott Newgent on Twitter so am aware of the horror stories!)

There are loads of transgender men doing videos and other content from what I have seen, some have not had bottom surgery but either way make money. Like TMM said though, as far as escorting long term goes it might not be as profitable.

I think it's a niche market so you'd get less clientes but could possibly charge more
